Industrial Energy Efficiency: Technology Delivery “Thinking Globally, Saving Locally” David S. Godfrey Atlanta Regional Office Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy U.S. Department of Energy Presentation to EPA Region IV P2 Conference Call September 1, 2004
BP Statistical Review of World Energy, 2004 The Global Look • Oil for 40 years, w/ 77% in OPEC countries* • Natural gas for 67 years, mostly from former USSR* • Coal for 192 years from N. Am, Europe, Asia and Eurasia* • World energy use up 2.9% in 2003 w/ 15% increase in Chinese coal use and doubling of oil use in decade • Wind capacity at 40,000 MW worldwide; solar photo-voltaics up 10X in last 10 years *At current rate of production
Partner with industry and other stakeholders to: Increase energy savings Reduce environmental impacts Improve process yield/conserve resources Reduce reliance on foreign oil Increase use of renewable energy Improve competitiveness and quality of life Office of Industrial Technologies Improve the energy intensity of U.S. industry through coordinated research and development, validation, and dissemination of energy efficiency technologies & practices. MISSION
Technology Delivery: Saving Locally • Technical Assistance • Plant-wide Assessments • Industrial Assessment Centers • Software Tools • Training • Information (Case Studies, Tip Sheets, etc.)
Summary of Technology Delivery Activities • Plant-wide Assessments : 32 representing Forest Products, Chemical, Petroleum and other industries • Attended Training : more than 4,500 employees • Received Decision Tools Software CD : 3150 distributed • Case Studies (at any stage of development): 85 completed
Plant-wide Assessments Cost-shared assessments identify opportunities for energy and cost savings • Up to $100,000 competitively awarded to plant through open solicitation process • Summary assessment reportpublished to promotereplication • Proprietary Informationfully protected • Opportunity to promote findings and methodology
Plant-wide Assessments: Examples Annual Savings Opportunities Identified Anchor Glass Container $1,638,000 Metlab $518,000 Utica Corporation $1,880,000 Bayer $1,478,000 Equilon Enterprises $52,500,000 Weyerhaeuser $3,100,000 Neville Chemical $287,000 Corning $25,920,000 Appleton Paper $3,459,000 3M $1,094,000 Georgia Pacific $5,000,000 WR Grace $840,000 Alcoa $1,072,000 Ford $3,280,000 Boise Cascade $707,000 Inland $9,500,000 Caraustar $1,280,000 Alcoa $1,974,000 Akzo Nobel $1,170,000 AMCAST $3,600,000 .
Pursuing a Plant-wide Assessment How can a company benefit fromplant-wide assessments? • Submit a proposal to next DOE solicitation (Mar. 2004). Watch www.oit.doe.gov/solicitations • Access case studies to learn about recommended strategies to boost energy efficiency. • Strengthen the corporate energy efficiency management team. Next Plant Wide Assessment solicitation expected Winter, 2005.
Industrial Assessment Centers (IACs) Teams of engineering faculty and students from 26 university-based IACs around the country conduct no-cost, on-site industrial assessments at eligible facilities. ~240 students in training each year Average 7-year savings per assessment: $74,000 More than 12,000 assessments have been conducted by IACs.
Industrial Assessment Centers Qualification Criteria • Annual sales under $100 million • 500 or less employees at plant • No designated energy manager • Energy bill less than $2 M/yr and greater than $100K/yr • Plant located 150 miles or less from IAC school To request an assessment, contact the nearest IAC university.
